In the novel, Alice finds the poem in a book but can only read it by holding the page up to a mirror.  Although the character '''Humpty Dumpty''' explains the meaning of some words and Lewis Carroll expanded the definitions in his later writings. While many of the words are either made up or are portmanteaux (two words combined together to make a new word<ref>e.g. Chortle - Defined by Humpty Dumpty as a combination of "chuckle" and "snort"</ref>) the structure of the poem is consistent with classical English poetry and has become popular throughout the English-speaking world.  It has also been translated into many other languages, including [[China|Chinese]], [[Klingon]], [[American sign language]] and [[Esperanto]].
